feeling.. disconnected?
By: / Novice
Post # 1
I don't post here often but I thought I'd post since I'm in need of the help of the wise folks here.

This all started about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I was having off and on communications with the godhead in my dreams and meditations, needless to say, it was glorious. But for the past week or so I haven't been meditating hardly at all and I'm beginning to feel spiritually lost.
Almost as if I've lost my self, or strayed off the path.
I haven't had any divine dreams lately, and I just feel kind of empty at the moment.

I guess my main question is, does this happen to anyone else here when they stop meditation for a period of time?
And is this a case of my ego getting the best of me?

Not to me, but meditation works to calm a person and sometimes helps to establish a balanced state and a connection to the metaphysical, so could be that or it could just be stress blocking your energy

You cant be spiritualy high 24 hrs. A day. In my opinion signs like these usualy mean that attention needs to be paid to mundane life.

Mundane actions are to be mixed with spiritual ones. This is how one leads a spiritual life. I have never met a spiritual person who did not give thanks or was grateful for the food they have to eat or any of their blessings in their life. All practitioners who are also spiritual will go through times when their practice is not as dominate as it should be. We can become lax in our workings and begin to feel lost. This is when we must remember to get back in the groove and start again because we enjoy the benefits that practice provides. I feel a spiritual high everyday when I greet the sun in the morning and do my waking meditation. I also get this high when I practice Yoga. Sometimes it occurs while I am cooking or cleaning. Like all things there are high and lows the trick is to find balance.

Thank you all for the wisdom. :)

What you all say makes sense, especially when thought of in terms of the Yin and the Yang/the light and the shadow.

It was foolish of me to believe that after going into a state of nirvana it would not be followed by an appearance of the shadow. Otherwise there would be no balance.

Come to think of it, I probably already knew the answers to my questions.

So now I'm wondering why I asked them in the first place?

Which also begs question, who was the "I" doing the asking?

The self?

Or the ego?

Probably the latter, that evil twin of mine can be quite the trickster. :p
Still good food for thought though. (see, there he is again :p)

In all seriousness though, thank you all and I am grateful to be apart of this community! I feel so.. at home here!

I have a pretty rigorous spiritual practice in order to stay in constant contact. Working within the trinity. Sometimes i see signs, angels and positive spiritual activeity everywhere i turn. At those times i tend to want to push forward and seek more knowledge in hopes of witnessing or experiencing a miracle, sign or prophecy. Once that energy dies down and no matter what i seem to try to get it back i am faced with resistance, i take that as a sign to pay more attention to the mundane. What you said about you already knowing the answer is exactly how i felt when i made the first post. Sometimes i need others to validate my feelings. Its called fellowship right? "When two or more gather in my name, i am there."
